So after last couple issues where Kensho reunited with his friends, got cornered by greed zombies, went to the castle, reunited with his friend, got cornered by greed zombies, this time he reunites with his friends and goes to the castle.

Yeah.

But the lesson in this wheel spinning is that “You’re going to have stop thinking about doing this alone. You are not on your own. There are many of us, and we all stand with you.”

It’s a good lesson. I don’t know if it completely works here though because Kensho had been gathering friends all along. Hell, his one time he makes a plan its to assume his friends will make a better plan and save him. And he only tries to do stuff alone after his friends all ditch him because he lied about his identity.

So I don’t know that it works.

So I guess we have greed zombies now.

Apparently if the Gelfling don’t have someone sitting on the most high throne telling them how to do, all the Skeksis metal will turn them into avaricious zombie-like shambling horrors.

And Jen and Kira’s absence due to napping was why the Gelfling fell into greed previously. Not due to systemic corruption or weak moral character of those high up in society. Oh no.

The Gelfling are just helpless dumb babies who don’t know how to act without a powerful central, divine mineral mandated leader telling them not to be dicks.

And as the Crystal’s new appointee to the throne, Kensho can suck the corruption out of people into his chest where he got stabbed.

Because its not metaphorical. Its not ‘they need someone to show them the right way.’ Kensho has apparently become the keystone of Gelfling good behavior.

So Kensho’s side of the plot has been about his identity issues and self-doubt and now its about a zombie apocalypse.

Because, sure.

I was going to say ‘hey he’s beating them with empathy. That’s something different.’
